    This product is OK, but should clearly just be packaged with the item. Also, the company nickel and dimed me on shipping with the armband. They misrepresented the shipping costs. I paid extra to have the items in 2 days and they sent it via regular USPS. They told me it might get there faster since I wasn’t that far from them. Judging from some other reviews, it seems that they may be trying to make a lot of extra money on shipping costs.

    In the end, they refused to credit me back the shipping difference. I asked several times and Amazon even told them that they agreed with me and requested that they refund me the difference. So, I wasted time and wrote them several emails. A letter to the head of their company, who was not even courteous enough to respond. The only thing they seem to respond to is negative reviews. They don’t seem to like them, but given the way they treat their customers, it is clearly what they deserve. It is not good enough these days to blabber a bunch of nonsense about how much you care about customers. We ain’t that stoopid. You need to walk the walk.

    It is unfortunate that this review has to focus on the customer service, because the products themselves aren’t bad. Unfortunately, a good product is only a small portion of a bigger picture. Personally, I try not to support companies that have bad customer service and don’t take care of their customers, but hey, do what is right for you.

    I thought I’d need this because every single armband I’ve ever purchased was too tight on my arms. I’m a bigger woman at 5’7″ and 230lb. 2 years after having my daughter I’m finally able to go to the gym again. To my great surprise, I didn’t need this after all. The armband itself is a bit tight without it but it’s not uncomfortable. With this armband, it’s a couple centimeters too big. If you have large arms, either due to weight or muscle, I suggest buying it and if you find you didn’t need it after all, just return it. I’m so grateful that TuneBelt Inc. has thought of a great armband and and equally great extender for people with larger arms. I’m even more grateful that I truly didn’t need it!

    Not much to say about this little handy extender. It works. I will say the plastic buckle rotates if worn too tight, but that is also with the regular connector too, not specific to the extender. I saw another comment on this and it’s true. And when it does this, it gets a little loose, so just keep it in mind and try not to make it too tight. It’s nothing that’s a deal breaker, if you need the extra length, get it!

    Wenn der Armumfang größer als 40 cm ist dieses Produkt als Zubehör zum Tune Belt erforgerlich. Tragekomfort ist top. Bei jeder sportlichen Betätigung (Laufen, Skaten, Kraftsport) mit dabei

    I bought a running holder a year ago for a small device, however, often they don’t fit people with large arms. This product enabled me to use the holder comfortably and securely. Great product

    Just wish there were more velcro space. When I try to really tighten it, it pops off. So I have to go to the next velcro spot and it’s a bit loose. But,I wear it for running and it keeps my iphone (in my otter box) nice and snug!!

    The extender was an absolute necessity for me and I’m not that large. The maximum size without the extender was just shy of being able to comfortably encircle my arm between the bicep and shoulder muscles when I wasn’t working my arms. If I did any lifting at all, my arms swelled and arm band would cut off circulation. The extender can cinch down to just slightly larger than the largest the arm band without the extender could, so there’s no intermediate size between having the extender and not having the extender where the arm band just won’t fit right. The extender is made of the same material as the arm band itself, so it’s difficult to tell when it’s even attached. Using the extender I’m also able to use the arm band on my forearm over the top of my motorcycle jacket that has hard plates in it so the potential range with the extender is quite large. I’d say it’s an absolute must if you aren’t a pure running with rather thin upper arms.

    It was a no brainer to buy this with my Tune Belt. For the $2 i figured better safe than sorry. And im glad i got it because the Tune Belt would not have fit my arm without the extender. Im a fairly big guy at 225lbs and 6ft. I would tell any guy who has or is playing sports, that you best buy the extender. Product is Quality and does exactly what it claims. it works awesome and is easy to use

    This extender works well with the tune belt as advertised, but the plastic hook has a tendency to spin in the sleeve which is both uncomfortable and adds about half an inch to the girth length, mid workout/run. If you are cautious in application you may avoid this scenario, but I have chosen to forego the extender and make the tune belt a little tighter.

    I ordered this armband extender becuase my arms were a little to large for the stock one. I had some issues with shipping, I did not ever receive my initial order. upon contacting the Tune Belt company, the responded very fast and shipped my out another one with no problems at all. I applaud there customer service and am awarding 5 stars as I do not blame them for the shipping error. (no idea where the post office ended up taking the original one). Great company, great products and would absolutly buy from them again.
